| Abstract: |
The North Arms and separately listed Stable Outbuilding are important architecturally and historically, with the associations with the North family of Wroxton Abbey. The North Arms is a prominent building in the Village and makes an important contribution to its setting. The Public house has original features from at least the 18th century, including x3 possible raised cruck trusses.Further analysis could be carried out for dating the timbers by using dendrochronology methods.There is evidential phasing from the 18th and 19th century, with additions made in the 20th century in the form of external doors, windows and the alterations to the now Toilet Block. The North Arms has some surviving significant features of note from the 17th century up to the 19th century all helping to tell a story of the buildings past. There has been inevitable loss of historic external windows and doors, and many external openings have changed over time especially during the 19th century.This assessment was commissioned to help inform the LPA on a proposal but was not an analysis of any proposed new works or the impact. A Schedule of works and Impact Assessment was carried out May 2019 taking into account the findings from this heritage report by RDA. This Report does include an some assessment of significance of the heritage asset and its surroundings and analysis of the historic fabric as found and could be seen on February 15th 2019 |
